Description
本発明は、めっき材およびその製造方法に関し、特に、車載用や民生用の電気配線に使用されるコネクタ、スイッチ、リレーなどの接点や端子部品の材料として使用されるめっき材およびその製造方法に関する。
The present invention relates to a plating material and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly to a plating material used as a material for contacts and terminal parts such as connectors, switches, and relays used for in-vehicle and consumer electrical wiring, and a method for manufacturing the same. ..
従来、コネクタやスイッチなどの接点や端子部品などの材料として、銅または銅合金やステンレス鋼などの比較的安価で耐食性や機械的特性などに優れた基材に、電気特性や半田付け性などの必要な特性に応じて、錫、銀、金などのめっきを施しためっき材が使用されている。これらのめっきと基材との間の密着性を向上させるために、これらのめっきと基材との間にニッケルからなる下地層を形成しためっき材も使用されている。
Conventionally, as a material for contacts and terminal parts such as connectors and switches, a relatively inexpensive base material such as copper or copper alloy or stainless steel, which has excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, has electrical properties and solderability. Plating materials plated with tin, silver, gold, etc. are used, depending on the required properties. In order to improve the adhesion between these platings and the base material, a plating material in which a base layer made of nickel is formed between these platings and the base material is also used.
銅または銅合金やステンレス鋼などの基材に錫めっきを施した錫めっき材は、安価であるが、高温環境下における耐食性に劣っている。また、これらの基材に金めっきを施した金めっき材は、耐食性に優れ、信頼性が高いが、コストが高くなる。一方、これらの基材に銀めっきを施した銀めっき材は、金めっき材と比べて安価であり、錫めっき材と比べて耐食性に優れている。
A tin-plated material obtained by tin-plating a base material such as copper or a copper alloy or stainless steel is inexpensive, but inferior in corrosion resistance in a high temperature environment. Further, the gold-plated material obtained by subjecting these base materials to gold plating has excellent corrosion resistance and high reliability, but the cost is high. On the other hand, the silver-plated material obtained by silver-plating these base materials is cheaper than the gold-plated material and has excellent corrosion resistance as compared with the tin-plated material.
そのため、コネクタなどの端子部品の材料として、雄端子と雌端子が嵌合する部分(嵌合部)に金や銀めっきが施され、電線などを加締める部分(加締め部)に安価で変形し易い光沢錫めっきや無光沢錫めっきが施されためっき材が使用される場合がある。
Therefore, as a material for terminal parts such as connectors, the part where the male terminal and the female terminal are fitted (fitting part) is plated with gold or silver, and the part where the electric wire is crimped (the crimping part) is inexpensively deformed. A plating material with glossy tin plating or matte tin plating, which is easy to use, may be used.
また、一般に、錫めっきは、電気めっきによって行われており、錫めっき皮膜の内部応力を緩和してウイスカの発生を抑制するために、電気めっきの後にリフロー処理(加熱により錫めっきを溶融した後に凝固させる処理)が行われている。このように錫めっき後にリフロー処理を行うと、錫の一部が素材や下地成分に拡散して化合物層を形成し、この化合物層上に錫または錫合金層が形成される。
In addition, tin plating is generally performed by electroplating, and in order to alleviate the internal stress of the tin plating film and suppress the generation of whiskers, reflow treatment (after melting the tin plating by heating) is performed after electroplating. Processing to solidify) is being performed. When the reflow treatment is performed after tin plating in this way, a part of tin diffuses into the material and the base component to form a compound layer, and a tin or tin alloy layer is formed on the compound layer.
特に、アルミニウムまたはアルミニウム合金からなる電線などを加締める部分に錫めっきが施されためっき材では、抵抗値が高くなるので、抵抗値の上昇を抑制するために錫めっきを施した後でリフロー処理を施す必要がある。
In particular, a plating material in which the part where an electric wire made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy is crimped is tin-plated has a high resistance value. Therefore, in order to suppress an increase in the resistance value, a reflow treatment is performed after tin plating. Need to be applied.
このようなめっき材として、銅または銅合金からなる板状金属部材の一方の面に電解めっきによりニッケルの下地めっき層を形成し、この下地めっき層上に電解めっきにより銀めっき層を形成し、板状金属部材の他方の面に下地なしで直接電解めっきにより錫めっき層を形成した後、酸素濃度が200ppm以下の低酸素濃度雰囲気中で400~800℃に加熱するリフロー処理を行って錫めっき層を溶融させることにより板状金属部材と錫めっき層の間に錫-銅の金属間化合物を形成することが知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
As such a plating material, a nickel base plating layer is formed by electroplating on one surface of a plate-shaped metal member made of copper or a copper alloy, and a silver plating layer is formed on the base plating layer by electroplating. A tin-plated layer is formed on the other surface of the plate-shaped metal member by direct electroplating without a base, and then reflowed by heating to 400 to 800 ° C. in a low oxygen concentration atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 200 ppm or less to perform tin plating. It is known that a tin-copper metal-to-metal compound is formed between a plate-shaped metal member and a tin-plated layer by melting the layer (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
また、少なくとも一部にリフロー錫めっき層が形成され、このリフロー錫めっき層との界面に反応層が形成された金属基材から、リフロー錫めっき層と反応層の少なくとも一部を完全に剥離させ、リフロー錫めっき層と反応層を完全に剥離させた領域の少なくとも一部にニッケルめっき処理を施してニッケルめっき層を形成し、このニッケルめっき層の少なくとも一部に錫めっき処理を施すことが知られている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。
Further, at least a part of the reflow tin plating layer and the reaction layer is completely peeled off from the metal base material in which the reflow tin plating layer is formed at least partially and the reaction layer is formed at the interface with the reflow tin plating layer. It is known that at least a part of the region where the reflow tin plating layer and the reaction layer are completely peeled off is subjected to a nickel plating treatment to form a nickel plating layer, and at least a part of this nickel plating layer is subjected to a tin plating treatment. (See, for example, Patent Document 2).
コネクタなどの端子部品の材料として使用するめっき材が、嵌合部に(耐酸化性に優れた)金めっきが施され、加締め部に錫めっきが施された後にリフロー処理を施されためっき材である場合には、リフロー処理による加熱後も接触抵抗がほとんど上昇しない。しかし、コネクタなどの端子部品の材料として使用するめっき材が、嵌合部に(金めっきと比べて安価な)銀めっきが施され、加締め部に錫めっきが施された後にリフロー処理を施されためっき材である場合には、リフロー処理による加熱後に銀めっき皮膜の接触抵抗が上昇したり、銀めっき皮膜の表面が変色するという問題がある。
The plating material used as a material for terminal parts such as connectors is plated with gold plating (excellent oxidation resistance) at the fitting part, tin plating at the crimping part, and then reflow processing. In the case of a material, the contact resistance hardly increases even after heating by the reflow treatment. However, the plating material used as the material for terminal parts such as connectors is silver-plated (cheaper than gold plating) on the fitting part, tin-plated on the crimped part, and then reflowed. In the case of the plated material, there is a problem that the contact resistance of the silver plating film increases after heating by the reflow treatment and the surface of the silver plating film is discolored.
特許文献1の方法では、低酸素濃度雰囲気中で加熱するための設備が必要になり、製造コストが高くなる。また、低酸素濃度雰囲気中でリフロー処理を行っても、銀めっき層と錫めっき層が共存する状態で高温で加熱するため、銀めっき層の接触抵抗が上昇したり、銀めっき層の表面が変色するおそれがある。
The method of Patent Document 1 requires equipment for heating in a low oxygen concentration atmosphere, which increases the manufacturing cost. In addition, even if the reflow treatment is performed in a low oxygen concentration atmosphere, the contact resistance of the silver plating layer increases and the surface of the silver plating layer becomes high because the silver plating layer and the tin plating layer coexist and are heated at a high temperature. There is a risk of discoloration.
特許文献2の方法では、リフロー錫めっき層と反応層の少なくとも一部を完全に剥離させる工程が必要になり、製造コストが高くなる。また、薬液で溶解させて剥離する際に必要以上にリフロー錫めっき層や反応層が剥離されるおそれがある。
The method of Patent Document 2 requires a step of completely peeling off at least a part of the reflow tin plating layer and the reaction layer, which increases the manufacturing cost. In addition, the reflow tin plating layer and the reaction layer may be peeled off more than necessary when they are dissolved in a chemical solution and peeled off.
したがって、本発明は、このような従来の問題点に鑑み、表面の一部に銀めっき皮膜が形成されるとともに他の一部に錫めっき皮膜が形成されためっき材をリフロー処理した後に銀めっき皮膜の接触抵抗の上昇や表面の変色を防止することができる、安価なめっき材およびその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。
Therefore, in view of such conventional problems, the present invention reflows a plating material having a silver-plated film formed on a part of the surface and a tin-plated film formed on the other part, and then silver-plated. It is an object of the present invention to provide an inexpensive plating material and a method for producing the same, which can prevent an increase in contact resistance of the film and discoloration of the surface.
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意研究した結果、銅または銅合金からなる基材の表面にニッケルめっき皮膜を形成し、このニッケルめっき皮膜の表面の一部に銀めっき皮膜を形成するとともに、ニッケルめっき皮膜の表面の他の部分の一部に錫めっき皮膜を形成することにより、基材上のニッケルめっき皮膜の表面に銀めっき皮膜と錫めっき皮膜が形成されためっき材を作製した後、このめっき材の表面に赤外線を照射して加熱することにより、錫めっき皮膜をリフロー処理して、錫めっき皮膜をリフロー錫めっき層にすれば、錫めっき皮膜をリフロー処理した後に銀めっき皮膜の接触抵抗の上昇や表面の変色を防止することができる、めっき材を低コストで製造することができることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。
As a result of diligent research to solve the above problems, the present inventors formed a nickel-plated film on the surface of a base material made of copper or a copper alloy, and formed a silver-plated film on a part of the surface of the nickel-plated film. A plating material in which a silver plating film and a tin plating film are formed on the surface of the nickel plating film on the base material is formed by forming the tin plating film on a part of the other part of the surface of the nickel plating film. After the production, the surface of this plating material is irradiated with infrared rays and heated to reflow the tin plating film, and if the tin plating film is made into a reflow tin plating layer, the tin plating film is reflowed and then silver. We have found that a plating material can be manufactured at low cost, which can prevent an increase in the contact resistance of the plating film and discoloration of the surface, and have completed the present invention.

By irradiating the surface of the material with infrared rays and heating it, the tin-plated film is reflowed to form a reflowed tin-plated layer.

In this method for producing a plating material, it is preferable to preheat a plating material in which a silver plating film and a tin plating film are formed on the surface of the nickel plating film before irradiation with infrared rays so that the tin plating film does not melt. .. Further, it is preferable that infrared irradiation is performed by an infrared lamp. Further, it is preferable that a part of the surface of the nickel plating film and a part of the other part of the surface of the nickel plating film are separated from each other.
また、上記のめっき材の製造方法において、銀めっき皮膜を形成した後に錫めっき皮膜を形成するのが好ましい。この場合、ニッケルめっき皮膜を形成した後、銀めっき皮膜を形成する前に、ニッケルめっき皮膜の表面の一部以外の部分をマスク部材によって覆うのが好ましい。また、銀めっき皮膜を形成した後、錫めっき皮膜を形成する前に、ニッケルめっき皮膜の他の表面の一部以外の部分と銀めっき皮膜の表面をマスク部材によって覆うのが好ましい。

以下、添付図面を参照して、本発明によるめっき材の製造方法の実施の形態について詳細に説明する。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the method for producing a plating material according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.
本発明によるめっき材の製造方法の実施の形態では、図1Aおよび図2Aに示すように、銅または銅合金からなる基材10を用意する。この基材10として、無酸素銅やタフピッチ銅などの純銅系の基材や、黄銅、りん青銅、Cu-Ni-Si系合金、Cu-Fe-P系合金、Cu-Ni-Sn-P系合金などの銅合金からなる基材を使用することができる。また、基材10の形状は、短冊状の個片でもよいが、生産性の面から(リール・トゥ・リール方式の連続めっきラインによってめっき材を製造することができる)条材であるのが好ましい。
In the embodiment of the method for producing a plating material according to the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 2A, a base material 10 made of copper or a copper alloy is prepared. The base material 10 includes pure copper-based base materials such as oxygen-free copper and tough pitch copper, brass, phosphorous bronze, Cu-Ni-Si-based alloys, Cu-Fe-P-based alloys, and Cu-Ni-Sn-P-based base materials. A base material made of a copper alloy such as an alloy can be used. Further, the shape of the base material 10 may be a strip-shaped individual piece, but from the viewpoint of productivity (a plating material can be manufactured by a reel-to-reel type continuous plating line), a strip material is used. preferable.
次に、図1Bおよび図2Bに示すように、基材10の表面(圧延面)の略全面に下地めっき皮膜としてニッケルめっき皮膜12を形成する。このニッケルめっき皮膜の形成は、電気めっきまたは無電解めっきのいずれでもよいが、生産性やコスト面から電気めっきによって行うのが好ましい。
Next, as shown in FIGS. 1B and 2B, a nickel plating film 12 is formed as a base plating film on substantially the entire surface (rolled surface) of the base material 10. The nickel plating film may be formed by either electroplating or electroless plating, but it is preferably performed by electroplating from the viewpoint of productivity and cost.
次に、図1Cおよび図2Cに示すように、ニッケルめっき皮膜12の表面の一部以外の部分にマスク部材14を配置(例えば、マスキングテープを貼り付けるか、レジストマスクを形成)してその部分を覆った後、図1Dおよび図2Dに示すように、ニッケルめっき皮膜12の表面の一部(マスク部材14を配置していない領域(図1Cおよび図1Dにおいて斜線で示す領域以外の領域))に銀めっき皮膜16を形成し、その後、図1Eおよび図2Eに示すように、マスク部材14を除去(例えば、マスキングテープまたはレジストマスクを剥離)する。この銀めっき皮膜16の形成は、電気めっきによって行うのが好ましい。
Next, as shown in FIGS. 1C and 2C, a mask member 14 is arranged (for example, a masking tape is attached or a resist mask is formed) on a portion other than a part of the surface of the nickel plating film 12, and that portion is formed. As shown in FIGS. 1D and 2D, a part of the surface of the nickel plating film 12 (the region where the mask member 14 is not arranged (the region other than the region shown by the diagonal line in FIGS. 1C and 1D)). A silver-plated film 16 is formed on the surface, and then the mask member 14 is removed (for example, the masking tape or resist mask is peeled off) as shown in FIGS. 1E and 2E. The formation of the silver plating film 16 is preferably performed by electroplating.
次に、図1Fおよび図2Fに示すように、ニッケルめっき皮膜12の表面の他の部分の一部以外の部分と銀めっき皮膜16の表面(の全面)にマスク部材18を配置(例えば、マスキングテープを貼り付けるか、レジストマスクを形成)してその部分を覆った後、図1Gおよび図2Gに示すように、ニッケルめっき皮膜12の表面の他の部分の一部(マスク部材18を配置していない領域(図1Fおよび図1Gにおいて斜線で示す領域以外の領域))に錫めっき皮膜20を形成し、その後、図1Hおよび図2Hに示すように、マスク部材18を除去(例えば、マスキングテープまたはレジストマスクを剥離)する。この錫めっき皮膜20の形成は、電気めっきによって行うのが好ましい。
Next, as shown in FIGS. 1F and 2F, the mask member 18 is arranged (for example, masking) on a portion other than a part of the other portion of the surface of the nickel plating film 12 and (the entire surface) of the silver plating film 16. After affixing tape (or forming a resist mask) to cover that portion, a portion of the other portion of the surface of the nickel plating film 12 (mask member 18 is placed) as shown in FIGS. 1G and 2G. A tin-plated film 20 is formed in the non-existing areas (areas other than the areas shown by diagonal lines in FIGS. 1F and 1G), and then the mask member 18 is removed (for example, masking tape) as shown in FIGS. 1H and 2H. Or peel off the resist mask). The tin plating film 20 is preferably formed by electroplating.
このようにして基材10の略全面に形成されたニッケルめっき皮膜12の表面に銀めっき皮膜16と(この銀めっき皮膜16から離間して)錫めっき皮膜20が形成されためっき材を作製した後、セラミックスパネルヒーターなどを用いた炉を使用して、錫めっき皮膜20が溶融しない条件で予備加熱した後、図1Jおよび図2Jに示すように、そのめっき材の表面に(赤外線ランプなどにより)大気中で赤外線を照射して加熱することにより、錫めっき皮膜20を溶融した後に冷却(リフロー処理)して、錫めっき皮膜20をリフロー錫めっき層22にする。
In this way, a plating material in which a silver plating film 16 and a tin plating film 20 (separated from the silver plating film 16) were formed on the surface of the nickel plating film 12 formed on substantially the entire surface of the base material 10 was produced. After that, using a furnace using a ceramics panel heater or the like, preheating is performed under the condition that the tin plating film 20 does not melt, and then, as shown in FIGS. 1J and 2J, the surface of the plating material (by an infrared lamp or the like). ) By irradiating infrared rays in the atmosphere and heating, the tin plating film 20 is melted and then cooled (reflow treatment) to form the tin plating film 20 into a reflow tin plating layer 22.
なお、赤外線による加熱は輻射であり、銀は赤外線を吸収し難く、その吸収率は、例えば、波長1μmで0.01程度であるのに対して、錫は赤外線を吸収し易く、その吸収率は、例えば、波長1μmで0.25程度である。そのため、基材10の略全面に形成されたニッケルめっき皮膜12の表面に銀めっき皮膜16と錫めっき皮膜20が形成されためっき材に、赤外線ランプなどにより赤外線を照射して加熱すると、銀めっき皮膜16は輻射によりほとんど加熱されず、錫めっき皮膜20が選択的に加熱されることにより、錫めっき皮膜20が溶融した後に冷却(リフロー処理)されて、錫めっき皮膜20がリフロー錫めっき層22になると考えられる。このようにしてリフロー錫めっき層22を形成すると、加熱による銀めっき皮膜の昇温が抑制されるため、銀めっき皮膜の変色が抑制され、接触抵抗の上昇も抑制されると考えられる。また、赤外線による加熱の前に、錫めっき皮膜が溶融しない程度に予備加熱しておけば、赤外線による加熱の時間を短縮することができる。
It should be noted that heating by infrared rays is radiation, and silver does not easily absorb infrared rays, and its absorption rate is, for example, about 0.01 at a wavelength of 1 μm, whereas tin easily absorbs infrared rays and its absorption rate. Is, for example, about 0.25 at a wavelength of 1 μm. Therefore, when the plating material on which the silver plating film 16 and the tin plating film 20 are formed on the surface of the nickel plating film 12 formed on substantially the entire surface of the base material 10 is heated by irradiating infrared rays with an infrared lamp or the like, silver plating is performed. The film 16 is hardly heated by radiation, and the tin plating film 20 is selectively heated, so that the tin plating film 20 is melted and then cooled (reflow treatment), and the tin plating film 20 is reflowed to the tin plating layer 22. Is thought to be. When the reflow tin plating layer 22 is formed in this way, it is considered that the temperature rise of the silver plating film due to heating is suppressed, so that the discoloration of the silver plating film is suppressed and the increase in contact resistance is also suppressed. Further, if the tin plating film is preheated to the extent that it does not melt before heating by infrared rays, the time for heating by infrared rays can be shortened.
基材10が条材である場合には、リール・トゥ・リール方式の連続めっきラインによって、連続的にめっきするのが好ましい。また、マスク部材18としてマスキングテープを使用する場合には、連続めっきラインにおいて、マスキングテープも連続テープ貼り装置によって連続的に貼り付けるのが好ましい。
When the base material 10 is a strip material, it is preferable to continuously plate by a reel-to-reel type continuous plating line. When the masking tape is used as the mask member 18, it is preferable that the masking tape is also continuously attached by the continuous tape attaching device in the continuous plating line.
